Road User Charging & Intelligent Transportation Systems

We are committed to ensuring that the limited resource "road" is used optimally through the application of modern technologies and that the instruments are available to control climate-damaging CO2 emissions.

As consultants, we plan and specify solutions for intelligent transport systems that are optimally tailored to the respective needs and framework conditions. We place a particular focus on the increasing automation and digitalization of mobility offerings as well as their intermodal networking. The advice of our experts is also valued internationally in the electronic charging of road infrastructure financing and in the design of systems for compliance with and monitoring of statutory regulations. In this way, we help national and international clients in the public and private sectors to keep pace with the rapid technological developments in transport telematics.

Policy & Feasibility

At the beginning of every large Road User Charging (RUC) or ITS project, it is necessary to take a strategic look at what is to be achieved with the project / system. We support you methodically (e.g. Key-Design-Questions, Morphological Box, Cost-Analysis etc.) as well as in terms of content through professional and technical knowledge and experience for more than 20 years in the international environment. Further steps towards implementation can be easily derived from this.

Award procedure

The regulations of public procurement law are complex. The implementation of an award procedure or the preparation of a good offer requires technical competence and a lot of experience. As technical advisors, we have a wide range of experience in the implementation of award procedures as well as in the preparation of tender-compliant offers.

Concepts & System Architecture

Through our work for both the public sector and private companies in the areas of RUC and ITS, we know the difficulties and the success factors of a RUC or ITS implementation as well as the commercial and technical operation of such systems. This experience is incorporated into the concepts based on the clear objectives of the policy.

Functional specifications

Functional specifications are crucial for the success of the implementation, both for the preparation of specifications for a call for tenders and for the design of a system. Solution-oriented performance specifications of a tender can not only lead to a small field of applicants, but also raise patent law issues. We offer functional specifications in all levels of detail for successful projects.

Test

Systematic testing is one of the most essential success factors in the implementation of IT and telematics systems. Experience in the design of such systems, knowledge of the functional requirements and processes as well as in-depth knowledge of test methodology, test specification and test execution make us an independent competent partner for the public sector as well as for industry.

Project Management

Often, project management only requires mastery of the various project planning and control instruments. However, in our view, successful project management also requires a very good technical knowledge of the systems and operational processes as well as the ability to motivate and control multidisciplinary groups. Our project managers have proven this in many projects.

Standardization

For more than 20 years, Rapp consultants have been active in standardisation for various clients. Their work is highly appreciated by public members as well as industry members. Both broad and deep knowledge in the field of RUC and ITS, allow us to efficiently support the joint solution finding process.

EETS

We have already supported and helped shape the interoperability of the systems in the first national toll projects (e.g. 2004 interoperability CH and AT). Both at the European level, we are significantly involved in the success of EETS. We still work for Toll Charger as well as for EETS providers. This creates confidence in the concepts and solutions we develop. We support the certification of EETS providers and work on the design of GTP and remuneration systems, to name a few of our services.


Mobility

We support you in the development of strategies and concepts for the transformation to climate-neutral mobility and accompany you on the way to transformation and implementation.

New mobility is much more than transport. It is the possibility of fulfilling our needs, which today usually require us to move from one part of town to another or to travel from the village to the city, even without using a means of transport to cover long distances. New mobility leads to a higher quality of life and a better attitude towards life through reduction. The expert combination of classical transport knowledge, spatial planning, new forms of technology and evaluation methods enables us to find forward-looking solutions for the environment, the economy and society. We offer you a hand in the development, implementation and support of new forms of mobility and services. With our holistic as well as specialized knowledge in the areas of automation, networking and positioning, we further support you in the technical implementation, operational design or infrastructural planning.

Research

The innovative solution of increasingly complex issues requires cooperation with experts in the differentiated fields. Together with our renowned partners from science and research, we develop a holistic understanding of the problem and an idea of the result horizons for questions in the field of mobility. Through a multidisciplinary project management and a broad knowledge in the field of mobility, society and technology we combine the results from the different disciplines to an innovative overall result.

Mobility Concepts & Policy

The views on the future of mobility span between a point of view oriented towards the common good and climate protection and a market-oriented point of view of the industry. We support cities and regions as well as clients from the private sector in the development of mobility strategies and concepts based on the current state of research and specifically for the respective context. To this end, we contribute our experience from research, in cooperation with municipalities, from the implementation and operation of IT and telematics systems, and a large portion of creativity.

New forms of mobility

New forms of mobility range from automated and connected driving to home office and co-working space. We help cities and regions along the path starting from their mobility strategy and concepts, defining the requirements, conducting award procedures, implementing and integrating New Forms of Mobility, and monitoring and adapting the operation of the different systems. Our experience in the field of RUC and ITS in combination with our profound knowledge in the field of mobility make us a successful partner.

Traffic Management

Digitalisation in the form of smartphones, PCs and navigation systems has already become an essential part of our lives and our mobility. The data available to us as a result not only enables us to make better forecasts in the area of planning and therefore also to design infrastructure and mobility services, but also to intervene in the traffic situation in an individual manner. Our expertise in traffic management combined with our professional and technical knowledge in the field of IT and telematics implementation make us an ideal partner for traffic management projects.
